Waging Peace: Muslim and Christian Alternatives

Just because we have different beliefs doesn’t mean we need to start with hostility, says author and activist Lynne Hybels in Waging Peace, “a documentary about overcoming mistrust, hatred and violence.” The film tells the stories of Christians and Muslims working and learning side-by-side, like members at Floradale Mennonite Church in Ontario who knot MCC quilts with members of a local mosque, and students at Claremont Lincoln University, an intentionally interfaith institution for ethical leadership, interfaith action and social impact. Religious scholars and practitioners from Christian and Muslim backgrounds emphasize understanding other religions and extending religious liberty to all faiths.
